Our Homespun tartan is made from a 55/45 blend of polyester and wool. Homespun tartan is woven 52″-54″ wide. It is woven by hand on old-world looms and looks very authentic to what would have been woven historically.
The cloth is also not as tightly woven. Homespun tartan will pleat by hand easily, but will not develop a sharp edge.
Small snags, pulls, holes and other assorted blemishes are common. Because it is hand-woven, these flaws are a natural part of its character.
Homespun is approximately a 9/10 oz. fabric, but feels thicker due to its looser weave.

Our Homespun tartan is made from a 55/45 blend of polyester and wool. Homespun tartan is woven 52″-54″ wide. It is woven by hand on old-world looms and looks very authentic to what would have been woven historically. The yarn is worsted, but not spun as tightly as modern machine-made tartan. The cloth is also not as tightly woven. Homespun tartan will pleat by hand easily, but will not develop a sharp edge. Small snags, pulls, holes and other assorted blemishes are common. Because it is hand-woven, these flaws are a natural part of its character. Homespun is approximately a 9/10 oz. fabric, but feels thicker due to its looser weave. Pleating instructions are included with each kilt. Traditionally these kilts are pleated each time you wear them.
